New Group Policies do not show all available options

[b33gopher]

Hi,


I have a w2k domain controller running service pack4. I'm in the
process of creating a second group policy for a group of users. Policy1
is in place and working great. However; the second newly created group
policy (policy2) is missing a lot of the options that the 1st group
policy has. Example: Policy1 under User Configuration:Administrative
Templates:Start Menu and Taskbar:"Remove My Documentsicon from Start
Menu" is shown. Policy2 does not have this
option. It's not just this folder either. There are other folders
throughout this policy. New policies I've created on this same server
are identical. They are all missing options. I have never seen this
before. I don't recall any updates being put on or any system changes
made to the server. Has anyone come across this? I don't really even
know where to begin here. I am accessing these policies directly from
the domain controller not through another pc. Is it possible my .adm
files are corrupt?

Not really sure what you are saying! Are you doing all of the admin type
duties on a DC ( if so, on ths same DC every time or on different DCs? ) or
on a workstation with the Adminpak installed?

I'm doing the duties on the same DC through remote desktop.
